ARoUsING His AMBITIoN.-"The boy is
.all right, said the doctor, "but you want
TO talk to him and arouse his ambition.
Promise you will take him somewhere
when he recovers sufficiently to 60 out; !;
talk to him about playing tag with the
boys; there are lots of ways in which you
can interest him."
Then the doctor addressed the boy, who
was just recovering from Il fever, saying /:
Come, Mickey, cheer up, my boy;
wouldn't you like to go and play tag with
your playmates ?"
A faint smile stole over the boys face,
but that was all.
s.Stop, sir" said the father, "Ill arouse
him. See here, Micky," he asked, address
ing the. boy, wouldn't yez like to 60 out

and asked for his trousers.

g Boy, AND BIRD.-There was an old min
lister who used to preach in a church in
Western New York who never allowed any
levity among his congregation, and kept a
rigid watch over the young people of his
charge. On one occasion foolish youth sat
in one Of the front pews and created stir
by lunging at some object that flew in
through the open window. The old minis
ter was purblind, but he peered over his
glasses and saw something flying about the
witless youth, who was fighting tooth and
nail.
aThere! there, sonny" he said, with au-
thority ssnever mind the bird"
Then he resumed his discourse, but the
congregation seemed more interested in the
youth and his contortiohs than in the SER
mon, and he stopped and again peered oyer
his spectacles at the flying object and the
boy.
"D'ye hear, sonny!" he said, in loud
voice. Never mind the bird"
This was too much for the youth, who
answered in shrill key:
sTain't q bird its q whacking big bum
BILE bee. an I'll be blamed if it's goin' to
come to meetin' when dew"
The controversy was stopped by one of
the deaeons, who removed the "hird. p

BUSINESS REVIEW OF THE PAST YEAR.
R.G. Dun e. Co.'S. weekly trade review of
last fridays date, says: ''Rarely has a
year opened with greater disheartenment
than the year 1886; rarely has a year closed
with more confidence. The dishearten-
ment was not wholly justified, and there is
some reason to fear that the confidence may
be partly unwarranted. Failures for the
year have been fewer than in 1885, and the
aggregate of liabilities has been smaller,
but the averages for the year have been
scarcely lower, and for the last quarter
failures have been both more numerous and
larger than for the same quarter of 1885,
the increase in the amount Of liabilities for
that period being no less than forty per-
cent. During the past month failures nave
